Find out if the Lunchable from Oscar Meyer is worth buying for your kids.

Product: Chicken + American Sub Lunchables

Details: This is one of three more wholesome Lunchables designed for kids. It has a sub made with seasoned chicken breast and American cheese, a bun with 8 grams of whole grain, fat-free mayo, sugar-free Jell-O, crispy rice treat, a bottle of water and a fizzy Kool-Aid drink drop. The meal has 250 calories.

Availability: In the refrigerated lunchmeat section of groceries.

Comments: We were dismayed by the excessive packaging on this product and wondered whether young kids would have the dexterity to open all of the items. The taste was average, but we thought youngsters would enjoy the variety. “The fizzy drink was cool. At least they’re drinking water.” “A school lunchroom meal is cheaper, and you get fresh fruit.” “It might be handy for a picnic or a vacation.”

Would you buy it? Not on a regular basis, but maybe for a special treat.
